Trump Allies Plan to Gut Climate Research if He Is Reelected
Dozens of conservative organizations have banded together to provide Trump a road map—known as Project 2025—to boost fossil fuels and limit government climate science
Let's not forget that this is the plan when ANY conservative gets elected.
If Donald Trump chokes to death on a McDonald's Hamberder tonight they won't abandon their plans to gut the legislation.
Any red vote is a vote against the climateYes, as with many aspects of the so-called MAGA agenda, he is merely intensifying decades-long trends, in this case Republican attempts to gag scientists and destroy the administrative state required to enforce environmental laws. DeSantis also was putting forward similar policy positions on climate stuff. But there's no doubt the Trump administration was the most anti-science in US history, making what we saw in the Bush years look like child's play. We still haven't recovered from what they did, and in some ways the environmental crimes of those years have only recently borne fruit, such as in the Supreme Court rulings against wetland protection, CO2 regulations, and the potential upcoming decision to require Congress to explicitly set all environmental criteria in the laws (an intentionally impossible task)
Well no fucking shit.
They've already done the job of practically removing climate change as an actual discussion point, it's why you don't hear enough of it through America.
They have already defanged every agency that had jurisdiction over the environment. This is just the next step.
And Democrats will compromise to only reduce it to 15% of its current levels.
The article is about Republicans and Trump, but you bring up Democrats to blame.
Better than going full throttle on hydrocarbons. Democrats are far from perfect, but we at least buy time with them vs stomping on the accelerator.
